The Rolling Stones announce greatest hits album The Rolling Stones, ABKCO Music & Records and Universal Music Group are pleased to announce the release of GRRR! by the Rolling Stones on the 12th November 2012 for the world, excluding North America, and on the 13th November 2012 in North America.

These brand new recordings constitute the first time Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood have all been together in the recording studio since completing the exalted A Bigger Bang album in 2005, and follow on from the critically-acclaimed expanded re-releases of the historic 40th Anniversary live Madison Square Garden concert Get Yer Ya-Ya’s Out in November 2009, and of two of their seventies masterworks, Exile on Main St., in May 2010, and Some Girls, in November 2011. All GRRR! formats will feature a striking painting by award-winning American artist Walton Ford, who has created the latest in a long line of iconic artwork that has always been part of the band’s DNA. In celebration of the Rolling Stones’ incredible journey, an innovative campaign has been launched to reveal their GRRR! Greatest Hits album sleeve using 3D Augmented Reality. During a three week teaser campaign fans were invited to download the free uView app in preparation for the announcement. From today, using the uView app fans can scan the GRRR!

sleeve and watch the stunning imagery come to life in 3D animation right before their eyes. The campaign will have further exciting updates coming soon.

The technology has been developed in partnership with Aurasma, the leaders in image recognition and augmented reality technology. GRRR! GREATEST HITS FORMATS: Release group “GRRR!” by The Rolling Stones - MusicBrainz There’s 1 review on CritiqueBrainz. You can also write your own . Most Recent Review by Sean Egan on 2012-11-08 This three-CD compilation gets off to a start to gladden the heart of the purist by including The Rolling Stones' 1963 debut single Come On, underrated by even the band themselves. However, any hopes raised that Grrr! will be a completist exercise are immediately dashed by the omission of follow-up I Wanna Be Your Man.

It's probably for the best: a collection devoted to mopping up the singles might have led to the exclusion of some of history's greatest, most epic recordings, among them the seething Satan flirtation Sympathy for the Devil, the melancholic exploration of the demi-monde You Can't Always Get What You Want and the smouldering, apocalyptical Gimme Shelter. These are all blissfully present on disc 2, which straddles the late 60s to the late 70s and makes clear why the Stones' music and image was then the template for all rock bands. Disc 1 covers the Stones' tenure as teen idols, a status they managed to combine with records that captured the bellicose, decorum-busting 60s zeitgeist such as Satisfaction, Get Off Of My Cloud and Let's Spend the Night Together. Remarkably, tracks like Time Is on My Side and Ruby Tuesday prove they could do lip-quivering sensitivity with equal aplomb. On the debit side, the stupid title and stupider cover artwork of Grrr! seem to suggest that enthusiasm was in short supply as the Stones' camp approached yet another permutation of their greatest hits.

Meanwhile, another sort of fatigue is conveyed by the fact that seven years after their last album, all they can muster in the way of new material to mark the milestone of their half-centenary is Doom and Gloom and One More Shot, a brace of tracks that - in the typical modern Stones style - are just riff, slogan and biscuit-tin drums. They at least don't do anything so embarrassing as try to pretend their recent output merits equivalence with their peak material: on the third disc, their last 34 years are represented by just 17 cuts. As ever, omissions can be complained of. And concluding with the two newies is unwise, if unavoidable with a roughly chronological tracklisting. However, the whopping 50 tracks are judiciously enough chosen to demonstrate why the band is legendary. What with that and its pocket-friendly price, Grrr! immediately assumes the status of the best Stones compilation on the market.

Release group information Rolling Stones Release 50 Anniversary Compilation, “Grrr!” Rolling Stones Release 50 Anniversary Compilation, “Grrr!” by Corey Brown | Bio Comment As part of the band’s 50th anniversary celebration this year, the Rolling Stones have released a mega compilation, Grrr! . The set spans the group’s five decades together, starting with their first single – a cover of Chuck Berry’s “Come On,” – released in 1963. Two new tracks, “Doom and Gloom” and “One More Shot”, recorded in August of this year, are included. Bonus material in some sets offers up the band’s demos for IBC in 1963, and a bonus 7˝ EP of a 1964 BBC session. Grrr!

is available in five different packages, including a 40-track, 2 CD jewel case with 12-page booklet; a 50-track, 3 CD digipak with 24-page booklet; a 50-track, 3 CD box set with 36-page hardcover book and five postcards; a 50-track, 5-12˝ vinyl box set; and the massive 80-track, 4 CD boxset with bonus CD, 7˝ vinyl, hardcover book, poster and postcards edition. Digital formats are also available. Rolling Stones to release first new music since 2005 | Music | The Guardian The Rolling Stones Rolling Stones to release first new music since 2005 GRRR!, a 50th-anniversary compilation due in November, will feature two new songs, the band's first since A Bigger Bang One Last Shot ... Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones will release that song as well as Gloom and Doom on 12 November.

Photograph: Reuters Close This article is 4 years old The Rolling Stones will release two new songs on 12 November, as part of a 50th-anniversary greatest hits compilation. One Last Shot and Gloom and Doom, recorded in Paris last month , will be included on an upcoming three-CD set called GRRR! GRRR! will trace the Stones ' trajectory from their first single, a cover of Chuck Berry's Come On, to the pair of new tunes, laid down at Studio Guillaume Tell. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards have contributed new parts to bonus tracks on recent reissues of Exile on Main Street and Some Girls , but Gloom and Doom and One Last Shot mark the full quartet's first time in studio since the making of 2005's A Bigger Bang . Though the Stones' discography is confusing owing to different US and UK editions of albums, this appears to be their 26th compilation album, and there has only been one new studio album since their 40th anniversary collection, Forty Licks. But what the band lacks in originality they are making up in scale: GRRR!

will be available in five different formats, ranging from a triple-CD set with 50 tracks, to a four-CD set comprising 80 songs, postcards, a hardback book, 7in vinyl, and an as-yet unidentified "bonus disc". The anthology will also be for sale on vinyl. Despite the official announcement of GRRR!, with its painted gorilla on the cover, the Rolling Stones have yet to confirm their 50th-anniversary concerts. Last week, Rolling Stone magazine and Billboard both independently reported that the band have booked November gigs at London's O2 Arena and Brooklyn's Barclays Center. Billboard said the Stones will play two concerts at each venue, netting a cool $25m, and that the shows will be mounted by Australian promoter Paul Dainty and Virgin boss Richard Branson. In addition to the concerts, the Stones are set to release two films this autumn. Charlie Is My Darling: Ireland 1965, shot on a short tour almost five decades ago, will premiere on 29 September at the New York film festival.

Meanwhile, director Brett Morgen has almost completed Crossfire Hurricane , a career retrospective that is due to open in cinemas in October and will subsequently be broadcast on BBC2. The Rolling Stones to release Greatest Hits album 'GRRR!' and two new tracks in November - NME NME 3:45 pm - Sep 4, 2012 0shares 0shares New compilation will include two new tracks recorded last month in Paris The Rolling Stones have announced that they will be releasing a brand new Greatest Hits compilation in November, which will feature two new tracks. The compilation will be titled ‘GRRR!’ and is being released to coincide with the band’s 50th anniversary. It will be released on November 12 in the UK and November 13 in the US. The compilation will be made available in five different formats, including a three-CD 50 track version and a four-CD super-deluxe version, which includes a whopping 80 tracks. ‘GRRR!’ will feature two brand new songs, ‘Gloom And Doom’ and ‘One Last Shot’, which were recorded in Paris last month.

This is the first new material the band have recorded since their 2005 album ‘A Bigger Bang’. As well as a three-CD 50 track version and a four-CD super-deluxe version, the compilation will also come in a 12″ vinyl boxset. Each of the CD versions will also come with a 3D album cover, which has painted by award-winning American artist Walton Ford. There is still no word on whether the band will be playing any live dates to celebrate their 50th anniversary. Last week, US sources reported that the band have been booked to play four shows later this year, including two nights at London’s O2 Arena, but this remains unconfirmed.

Don't Stop Audio CD (November 13, 2012) Original Release Date: November 13, 2012 Number of Discs: 3 Amazon's The Rolling Stones Store › By steve_manassas on November 24, 2012 Format: Audio CD|Verified Purchase The Rolling Stones' work over the last 50 years has been divided into two periods - their Decca/London work of the '60s, owned by the late Allen Klein's ABKCO Records, and their post-1971 material released on the band's own imprint (distributed over the years by Atlantic, WEA, EMI, and CBS (Sony)). When the group signed with Virgin Records in 1992, Rolling Stones Records folded; the group's post-1971 catalog is now distributed by Universal Music Group, which, ironically, manufactures and distributes ABKCO. For legal reasons, all Stones compilations until 2002 were split between the two periods.

"Brown Sugar" and "Wild Horses" - recorded at the end of the Decca period, but initially released on Rolling Stones Records both as singles and on the STICKY FINGERS album, are jointly owned by ABKCO and the band, and appear on both ABKCO and Rolling Stones Records/Virgin/Universal compilations. The first career-spanning Stones compilation was the 2002 collection Forty Licks . For the group's 50th anniversary, ABKCO and Universal have compiled GRRR!, the most comprehensive overview of The Stones' career to date, with tracks ranging from the band's first 1963 single, Chuck Berry's "Come On," to two brand-new 2012 tracks, "Doom and Gloom" and "One More Shot." I don't own all of The Stones' hits packages, but here is how GRRR!

compares to the ones that I do own: Hot Rocks 1964-1971 : All of the songs from this compilation are on GRRR!, but there are two differences: HOT ROCKS has the full-length version of "You Can't Always Get What You Want" from Let It Bleed (Remastered) , whereas GRRR! uses the stereo single edit (previously issued only in mono). Also, GRRR! uses the LET IT BLEED version of "Midnight Rambler," while HOT ROCKS uses the live recording from Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out! (Remastered) . More Hot Rocks: Big Hits & Fazed Cookies : Five tracks from the main portion of this collection - "Tell Me," "Good Times, Bad Times," "Sittin' On A Fence," "No Exceptations," and "Let It Bleed" are not included on GRRR! Only one track from the "rarities" section (Side 4 of the original album, and the last 11 tracks on the remastered CD) is included on GRRR!

- "Come On." FORTY LICKS: All of the tracks on Disc 1 (the ABKCO disc) are on GRRR!, aside from a few mono/stereo differences on songs like "Paint It, Black," "Ruby Tuesday," and "Let's Spend the Night Together," plus the different versions of "You Can't Always Get What You Want" mentioned earlier. Seventeen of the twenty tracks on Disc 2 (the Rolling Stones Records/Virgin/Universal disc) also appear on GRRR!, but only one of the four 2002 songs is included - "Don't Stop." The Rolling Stones Singles Collection: The London Years and the three CD box sets of individual singles (THE SINGLES 1963-1965, THE SINGLES 1965-1967, and THE SINGLES 1968-1971) contain a lot of B-sides and (in the case of THE SINGLES 1963-1965) EP tracks that are not included on GRRR! The packaging on the Super Deluxe Version of GRRR! is impressive, but bulky.

The box contains a poster from a 1963 tour, a slotted cardboard insert containing a black envelope with five art prints from the band's various tours over the years, and a 7" vinyl EP with four early songs from a BBC radio show, recorded in experimental stereo. The EP's back cover has liner notes in the same size and font as the group's original 1963 EP, THE ROLLING STONES. CONSUMER ALERT: The EP plays at LP speed (33 1/3 RPM), not 45 RPM, as most vinyl EPs do, so set your turntable speed accordingly. Of the EP's four songs, one, a Bo Diddley number called "Cops and Robbers," was never recorded by The Stones elsewhere. Bobby Troup's "Route 66" was issued in 1964 on the band's first album, and a live version surfaced on the 1965 GOT LIVE IF YOU WANT IT! EP (not on the 1966 U.S. album of the same name), and was issued in America in 1965 on London Records' DECEMBER'S CHILDREN (AND EVERYBODY'S).

Arthur Alexander's "You Better Move On" appeared on The Stones' self-titled British EP, and in America on DECEMBER'S CHILDREN as well. The blues number "Mona" appeared on the group's 1964 UK Decca debut album, THE ROLLING STONES, but was replaced with the single "Not Fade Away" on the American London version, ENGLAND'S NEWEST HIT MAKERS. "Mona" appeared in the U.S. in 1965 on the third London album, THE ROLLING STONES, NOW! Then there is the 96-page book, containing a bonus CD of five mono IBC demos from 1963 ("Diddley Daddy," "Road Runner," "Bright Lights, Big City," "Honey What's Wrong," and "I Want To Be Loved.") The first four tracks were never recorded elsewhere; "I Want To Be Loved" was later re-recorded and released as the B-side to "Come On." The bonus CD is stored in the inside front cover of the book, while the four main CDs are stored in the inside back cover.

The book contains an essay by Jann Wenner of Rolling Stone magazine (yes, partially named after the group), some nice black-and-white photos of The Stones, plus some very nice memorabilia, but I would have preferred an illustrated discography, and the lyrics to the songs as well. Also, the track listings, which show a performance copyright of 2004 for the ABKCO material and 2010 for the Rolling Stones Records/Virgin/Universal material, except for the two new 2012 songs, could have been more detailed, showing when each track was recorded, the original release date, and what LP that the track(s) originally were issued on. Disc 1 - all tracks mono, except "It's All Over Now," "Heart of Stone," "Time Is On My Side" (unfortunately, the remake, not the original), "Paint It, Black," "She's a Rainbow," "Under My Thumb," and "Out of Time." Disc 2 - all tracks stereo, except for "Mother's Little Helper," which is the mono single version, not the stereo version from AFTERMATH UK. Discs 3 and 4 - all tracks stereo.

If you are a newcomer to The Rolling Stones and want just one definitive collection, GRRR! is the one for you. The Super Deluxe Edition is expensive, but there are also two-CD and three-CD versions of GRRR! available. Choose the one that fits your budget and your needs. I purchased the Super Deluxe Edition because it contained 34 tracks that I did not own elsewhere (three on ABKCO; 22 on Rolling Stones Records/Virgin/Universal, including the two new 2012 songs, plus the nine bonus tracks on the two EPs). In addition, all of the songs on the 2-CD set (available at Target and certain other select retailers) are on the 3-CD Deluxe Edition, and all of the material on the 3-CD set is on the Super Deluxe Edition, so it's not necessary to buy multiple editions of GRRR! to obtain "missing" tracks. On the other hand, if you already own the bulk of the material, and don't care about the new 2012 songs, the BBC recordings, or the IBC demos, skip it. Of course, you could always download the material that you don't own.

By Thomas E. Davis on November 13, 2012 Format: Audio CD Another decade has passed in the career of the World's Greatest Rock and Roll Band, and they're celebrating the 50th anniversary of their founding in 1962. Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, and Company are pushing 70, but the group has decided to go out with a bang. They're staging five arena shows on both sides of the Atlantic and putting out a new, feature-length, autobiographical documentary called "Crossfire Hurricane" with archival footage from the 60s and 70s narrated by the band. They've reconstructed and restored the first-ever Rolling Stones documentary, "Charlie Is My Darling," filmed in Ireland in 1965, and published a 352-page "photographic biography" entitled "The Rolling Stones 50." Finally, they're offering six (count 'em, six!) chronological greatest hits albums: a budget two-CD, a standard three-CD, a deluxe three-CD, a deluxe Blu-Ray, a deluxe vinyl five-LP, and a super deluxe five-CD/one-EP collection.

Each set offers the same two new studio recordings -- good ones, dammit! If you have money to burn and don't mind making some of the richest men in the world just a bit richer, there's almost no limit to what you can spend on the Stones' music and memorabilia this year. The best-of compilations are expertly remastered, albeit selectively edited for length, so while newer listeners probably won't notice anything amiss, nostalgic fans might. The first two discs of the standard version (33 out of 50 tracks) cover the Stones' early career, revisiting most of the required hits from the 60s to the mid-70s. Starting with their very first single, a 1963 cover of Chuck Berry's "Come On," the band includes music from their singles and studio albums up to "Black and Blue" in 1976.

The third disc contains 17 recordings from the 1978 album "Some Girls" (though not the title track) to their final studio album in 2005, "A Bigger Bang," plus the aforementioned new songs, "Doom and Gloom" and "One More Shot," both of which harken back to the rough classic sound of the Stones. A 12-page booklet is enclosed. How does the three-CD set compare to "Forty Licks," the two-disc, 40-track, 40th-anniversary collection? It's far better. Of the four new tunes on that non-chronological 2002 album, only "Don't Stop" is recycled; 33 of the 36 remaining cuts are included on "GRRR!" (absent are "Mother's Little Helper," "Shattered," and "You Got Me Rocking").

These 33 are supplemented with a couple of mid-60s covers, Buddy Holly's "Not Fade Away" and Howlin' Wolf's "Little Red Rooster," and enough important songs from the Glimmer Twins to make a more satisfying package: "Time Is on My Side," "Heart of Stone," "As Tears Go By," "Rocks Off," "Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker)," "Respectable," "Waiting on a Friend," "Harlem Shuffle," "Streets of Love," and others. As wonderful as the music is, though, it's not perfect; several relatively weak choices ("We Love You," "She Was Hot," "Highwire") take the place of terrific songs like "Let It Bleed," "Can't You Hear Me Knocking," and "Dead Flowers," which are nowhere to be found. If you'd like this set with five postcards commemorating various tours and a 36-page hardcover book instead of the 12-page booklet, buy the Deluxe Edition; if you'd prefer it in a different format, both five-LP and imported Blu-Ray versions are available.

And if money's no object, there's the huge Super Deluxe Edition: a 12-by-17-inch box containing four CDs with 80 hits and album cuts and covers, a five-track CD of the Stones' very first unreleased demos, a four-track vinyl EP of an unreleased BBC Radio session, a 96-page hardcover book with photos of various ephemera, a reproduction of an early poster from the Ricky Tick Club (an influential R&B venue on the outskirts of London), in addition to the 36-page book and the five postcards. The 89 super deluxe cuts encompass covers of the Beatles' "I Wanna Be Your Man," O.V.

Wright's "That's How Strong My Love Is," and Bob Dylan's "Like a Rolling Stone" as well as more hits and favorite performances not included on the three-disc set: "I'm Free," "Play with Fire," "Mother's Little Helper," "Lady Jane," "Honky Tonk Women," "Midnight Rambler," "You Got the Silver," "Bitch," "Dance Little Sister," "Shattered," "Far Away Eyes," "She's So Cold," "Rough Justice," "Rain Fall Down," etc. Compilations will never take the place of individual albums from the Rolling Stones' peak years, and they'll never please longtime fans like me who have no need for obvious radio fodder and want the rare stuff and the live stuff instead. There aren't a lot of surprises in these boxes, and the editing and inevitable omissions also reduce their value (where are "Live with Me" and "Star Star" and "Hang Fire" and a dozen more?), so I'm giving them only four stars.

The two-CD set earns just three stars as it's even skimpier, dropping 10 songs from the three-CD set: "Time Is on My Side," "Heart of Stone," "Under My Thumb," "We Love You," "She's a Rainbow," "Highwire," "Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker)," "She Was Hot," "Streets of Love," and "Rocks Off." But if you're in the market for greatest hits, something to remind you of the Stones' awesome talent and staying power over the years, then these boxes are the best you're going to do for now -- though of course you could assemble your own list of fave mp3s and burn a set of CDs for yourself. Since Amazon has not listed the tracks of the super deluxe set, I will. I've indicated the 14 edited tracks. CD 1 By D. R. Turgeon on July 15, 2015 Format: Blu-ray Audio|Verified Purchase I purchased the Blu-Ray Pure Audio version of this album. It is an amazingly complete book of the musical maturation of The Rolling Stones. But, (and isn't there always a but?

with one t?), I've come to the realization as to why CD and other music formats such as this are not selling as well as might be expected. Play this in your Blu-Ray player and what do you see on a monitor or TV screen? Nothing! No song titles, no release date information, zippo! Nada! In the age of digital everything, where MP3 or other formats can provide song title, artist, album title, genre, release date, etc. this high resolution, super quality audio disc has nothing, and it costs an arm and a foot (I would have said leg, but I got my copy from a third-party seller for a much better price). Even CD has CD-TEXT, which can provide title and artist information, though for some reason, the manufacturers never used the capability. The sound quality is superlative; other features such as song information - fug-get-a-bout-it.

Hot on the heels of various and sundry documentaries, DVDs, Blu-rays and luxury vinyl box sets, the world's greatest rock and roll band has just announced its first-ever compilation-styled career-spanning box set. GRRR! is a joint project of ABKCO and Universal Music Group, and it's slated to arrive on November 13 in the U.S. and one day earlier in all other territories.

The new set is more comprehensive than the 2-CD career-spanning 40 Licks , tracing the band's career from its first single release and earliest hits to the present day, via two all-new recordings recently completed in Paris, France: new songs "Gloom and Doom" and "One Last Shot."

by The Rolling Stones on the 12th of November 2012 for the World Excluding North America and on the 13th of November 2012 in North America Available in various different formats - including a three-CD 50 track version featuring 50 tracks, and a four-CD Super-Deluxe version gathering a whopping 80 tracks - the collection tells the fascinating ongoing story of the Greatest Rock'n'Roll Band In The World, from their high octane version of Chuck Berry's "Come On," their first single issued in June 1963, via the thrilling chart-toppers "The Last Time," "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction," "Get Off Of My Cloud," "Jumping Jack Flash" and "Honky Tonk Women" and the perennial juke-box and concert favourites "Brown Sugar," "Tumbling Dice," "Miss You" and "Start Me Up," all the way to the present day with the inclusion of "Gloom and Doom" and "One Last Shot," two new studio recordings recently completed by the group in Paris, France.

These brand new recordings constitute the first time Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood have all been together in the studio since completing the exalted A Bigger Bang album in 2005, and follow on from the critically-acclaimed expanded re-releases of the historic 40th Anniversary live Madison Square Garden concert "Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out!" in November 2009 and of two of their seventies masterworks, Exile on Main St ., in May 2010, and Some Girls , in November 2011. All GRRR! formats will feature a striking painting by award-winning American artist Walton Ford, who has created the latest in a long line of iconic artwork that has always been part of the band's DNA. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards were school friends who lost touch, met up again at Dartford train station in 1960, and bonded over a shared love of rock'n'roll and Chicago blues. Within a couple of years, they were joined by guitarist Brian Jones and pianist Ian Stewart and became part of the rich rhythm and blues scene that gravitated around Alexis Korner and Cyril Davies in London.

By January 1963, they had added drummer Charlie Watts and bassist Bill Wyman and were playing a repertoire of Chess Records favourites Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Muddy Waters - whose Rollin' Stone composition provided their name - and Howlin' Wolf - whose "Little Red Rooster" became their second UK number one in 1964. Jagger and Richards forged a creative partnership that endures to this day and has produced some of the most memorable songs in music history, including the much-covered Ruby Tuesday and Wild Horses. The Jagger-Richards catalogue is remarkably consistent, full of unexpected lyrical and melodic twists which helped shaped popular music. Compositions like "19th Nervous Breakdown," "Paint It, Black," "Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing in the Shadow?" and "Let's Spend The Night Together" articulated the feelings and frustrations of the counterculture generation and held a mirror to British society.

In 1968, the Rolling Stones made the seminal Beggars Banquet album, featuring the heart-of-darkness opener "Sympathy For The Devil" and the finely-observed "Street Fighting Man" whose "what can a poor boy do, except to sing for a rock'n'roll band?" lyric sounds more apposite than ever. They survived the loss of Jones, replaced by Mick Taylor who proved a sterling contributor to Let It Bleed, the influential 1969 album which included the elegiac "You Can't Always Get What You Want" and the ominous, eerily prescient "Gimme Shelter". With Jagger, the ultimate showman setting the gold standard for other lead singers, and Richards, the iconic guitarist raising the bar in riff-making, the Rolling Stones were the first band to master the art and craft of playing arenas and effortlessly made the groundbreaking move into stadiums in the seventies. They have remained the world's top concert attraction with every successive record-breaking tour, as effective performing beautiful ballads like "Angie" and "Fool to Cry" as the out-and-out rocker Respectable, their 1978 riposte to the punks who copped so many moves from them.

The arrival of Wood, who took over from Taylor in the mid-seventies, added his signature slide and pedal steel guitar to an already heady brew and proved the perfect partner in the "ancient art for weaving" for Richards on tracks like "Beast Of Burden," coincided with the funkier direction of the dancefloor fillers "Hot Stuff" and "Emotional Rescue." In 1983, the edgy, sonically-adventurous "Undercover Of The Night" showed the group still had their finger on the pulse of alternative culture; the controversial "Undercover" video, directed by Sex Pistols associate Julien Temple, provided another highlight in a storied career that has seen them collaborate with world-famous film-makers like Nicolas Roeg, Jean-Luc Godard, Martin Scorsese, the Maysles and Peter Whitehead. The Rolling Stones overcame the mid-eighties hiatius that nevertheless saw them score one of their biggest successes with their superior version of Bob & Earl's "Harlem Shuffle," and returned stronger than ever with the Steel Wheels album and its irresistible lead off-track "Mixed Emotions" in 1989.

Following Wyman's exit in 1993, they soldiered on and hit another purple patch with the Voodoo Lounge and Bridges To Babylon albums and their respective singles, the harmonica-led "Love Is Strong" and "Anybody Seen My Baby," their first hit to feature sampling and rapping. In 2005, the soulful, gospel-infused ballad "Streets Of Love," from A Bigger Bang, became a worldwide smash 42 years after their first chart entry, while the 1972 outtake "Plundered My Soul" helped the expanded Exile On Main St. return to the top the UK album charts 38 years after its original release, a feat unmatched by any artist.

[Super Deluxe Box Set] (CD - ABKCO Records #B 001766402) google+ Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine Graced with cover art of a grotesque gorilla sporting the Stones ' trademark leering lips, GRRR! doesn't quite have the classy veneer usually associated with a 50th anniversary collection. Frankly, that's a good sign for the Rolling Stones : they're celebrating their half-century together but refusing to take themselves too seriously, even when they're assembling a mammoth retrospective that's available in two wildly different incarnations. Each chronicles the Stones ' story beginning with their first single, a cover of Chuck Berry 's "Come On," to a pair of good new recordings (a loose-limbed rocker called "Doom & Gloom" and the poppier "One More Shot").

Neither the standard triple-disc version nor the super deluxe four-disc set -- which has the added bonus of a disc of the band's Chess Records-heavy demos for IBC in 1963, a significant enticement to make the investment (there's also a bonus 7" EP of a 1964 BBC session) -- has all of the singles or significant songs the Stones have released over the course of five decades, but both do an excellent job of providing a thorough overview of a monumental career. Of these, three-CD set offers fewer surprises, marching steadily through the years and serving up the songs you know by heart, supplemented by just enough of the best latter-day material to make a convincing argument that the Stones retained their power. As it has more room to roam, the four-disc Super Deluxe is quirkier and offers a better illustration of the band's range, digging deeper into the band's late-'60s psychedelia ("Dandelion," "Child of the Moon"), emphasizing country-rock ("You Got the Silver," "Salt of the Earth"), disco ("Dance, Pt. 1"), and does a tremendous job in editing the band's third act so their enduring craftsmanship shines through.

Again, it's easy to name great songs that are missing, but what's here is sublime, some of the best rock & roll ever made, and the best overall Stones comp to date. [The Super Deluxe Edition comes with a mind-boggling collection of bonus material, from a disc of unreleased studio recordings to an unreleased 7" and more.] Track Listing - Disc 1
